Abstract

Explores how planning and design could be used to support socially diverse places. Studies places that are already socially diverse and suggests ways the built environment could be leveraged to support this diversity. Expounds on physical context and what these environments mean for the people who live there. Considers their form and how they have responded to inhabitants’ needs, what the basis is for a shared aesthetic, and whether diverse areas find a shared definition of place.
